    Default CRAIGSLIST SCAMS - Got Hit Twice Today

    I have some items for sale on our local Craig's list. Well, on 2 seperate items 2 different people emailed me with an interest in the items, only to send another email shortly afterward stating "Sorry, we've already found one" - then sent me a link to click on some site b/c Walmart was supposedly giving away $1000 gift cards. I didn't click on the link, fearing that it was a set-up for a virus. Just alerting everyone here to be careful.

    Thank you for the head's up. I haven't listed anything on Craigslist, but have been considering it.
